Singer-songwriter and producer Noga Erez will perform in Madison for the first time in Shannon Hall at Memorial Union alongside special guest V1V1D on Oct. 15 at 7:30 p.m. as part of her international tour and the Wisconsin Union Theater’s (WUT’s) 2025-2026 season lineup.
Erez, known for her lyricism and merging of musical styles, offers her own interpretations of existing genres. Her alternative pop identity combined with her electronic experimentation have gained recognition worldwide.
She released her debut album “Off the Radar” in 2017. After releasing her 2021 album “KIDS,” she garnered attention from artists Missy Elliott and Billie Eilish. In collaboration with Elliot, Erez released a single titled “NAILS” in 2022. She released her third studio album, “The Vandalist,” in 2024.
She was featured on the Forbes Israel “30 Under 30” list in recognition of her place in Israel’s electronic dance music scene in 2017. She earned a Latin Grammy nomination for Album of the Year in 2022 for her role as producer on the album “Tinta y Tiempo.”
“Noga Erez’s music is unlike anything out there,” WUT Director Elizabeth Snodgrass said. “Her raw, unfiltered lyricism and uncompromising musical identity create an experience that transcends any genre. It’s mainstream without being redundant; it’s accessible without being pedantic. Madison needs to hear this new-to-us artist.”
